Sentimental and delightful

I found it to be quite an affecting, warm-hearted film. Surely nobody could have played the new teacher as well as Miss Garson, and it is always a pleasure to see Robert Ryan playing a "good guy" instead of a pyscho-killer! Many excellent small parts for worthwhile players such as Barbara Lawrence, Ian Wolfe, Ivan Triesault, Frances Bergen, etc. Maybe it is just a big hunk of middle-brow sentimentality but I loved it!

Quotes
[first lines]
Jan Stewart: [voice over] When I was a child and given to daydreaming, I had many visions of myself as a grown-up. One of these visions was of myself high in the air while below everyone else went... .
[sound of applause while Jan is shown on a trapeze]
Jan Stewart: [voice over continues] In another of my daydreams, I was the happy mother of four boys and four girls... all of them exactly four years old. As I grew older, I saw myself in a dream ballroom waltzing with the Crown Prince of Our Kingdom. His heart was breaking because I refused to marry him. It was out of the question... I had already promised to marry the junior senator from my home state. There were other daydreams. Always, I was glamorous... heroic... and well loved. But dreams have a way of ending. Quite suddenly, you can wake up and find yourself, as I did, that day in September, starting life over again when I went to a place I'd never been to do something I never dreamed of doing, and trying not to show how scared I was.
